Re: 50 years ago I was given this USAF 54 3100

Since being back on road i'm seeing some thing that still need tweaking. Long ago i set up a negative battery disconnect primarily for ease of use when rewiring and long term storage. One issue with that is the use of an alarm system. I like the idea of parking it some public spot and removing the disconnect "key" rendering it "dead". This negates the use of the alarm. Am now converting the alarm to a standalone system being the only thing directly connected to the battery. This requires both positive and negative runs to alarm box, siren, shock sensor and door/hood anti-tampers. Will be using magnetic switchs with rare earth magnets due to steel body. The alarms starter kill function is still an option. Anyone have insight on the use of magnetic switchs in vehicles???

BTW I wound up with two complete alarm systems by mistake so have a cheep spare if anyone needs one. PM me
